From the reviews

…Through the three months, I let Molly guide me through acupuncture, Chinese herbs, and cupping for my extreme back tension. Thanks to Molly & Jen's care, inquisitiveness, and deep knowledge/passion, I finally feel like a real person again. I can laugh and engage.

★★★★★ — Katie, Nov 2023

…:) There’s a reason this practice has loads of patients; their acupuncture technique, along with other healing methods, like cupping, have done wonders for my daughter, along with a number of other kids and families we know.

★★★★★ — Erin, Jun 2021

Molly is the epitome of a approachable, compassionate health care provider. She creates an atmosphere of trust, enabling me to be honest about my journey to better health. She consistently provides an outstanding level of care with her innate ability to connect and passion for what she does.

★★★★★ — Brooke, Apr 2016

I've been seeing Jenn and Molly for the past five months to treat thinning hair. I've loved the care and attention they both provide. They really listened to all the symptoms I would come in with each week or two. I started to see results with less hair fall and fewer night sweats after about two months.

What to expect from your first cupping session

New to cupping? Here's the short version. What happens: the practitioner places cups on the skin — most often the back, shoulders, or legs — and creates suction (with a pump, or briefly with a flame for fire cupping). Cups either stay put for a few minutes (dry cupping) or are glided over oiled skin (massage cupping). A session is usually 15–45 minutes, often added to a massage or acupuncture visit. The marks: cupping leaves round, bruise-like circles that are normal and usually fade in a few days to a couple of weeks — they're discoloration from the suction, not an injury, and shouldn't really hurt. What to wear: comfortable clothing that gives access to the area being treated. Afterward: drink water, keep the area warm, and skip intense sun or a hot sauna right after.

Cupping isn't for everyone — if you're on blood thinners, pregnant, or have a skin condition or bleeding disorder, check with your doctor first, and always tell your practitioner about health concerns before a session. This page is directory information, not medical advice.
